This unique Rolex Milgauss Aftershock watch made by Bamford company, that personalise a range of steel sports watches.
Bamford Watch Department have reinvented the 1950’s Honeycomb dial using a combination of vintage and modern techniques to create a concave effect. The intense, 3 dimensional design on the dial embodies their mantra that ‘if you can imagine it, we can create it’. Inspired by the signature lightning bolt second hand, this watch brings to life a modern depiction of a shock wave.
George Bamford, founder of BWD, explains:
“I love the signature lightning bolt on the Milgauss watch and wanted to expand what is already an amazing concept and bring it to life. I have an amazing team who have tested and trialed a technique which keeps pushing the boundaries and I am delighted to have produced such a popping dial design.”
The business was started around 10 years ago and has been based around the personalisation of various iconic sports watches from some of the major brands in the watch world.
